Forest Hills Stadium's summer concert series has received conditional approval from the NYPD, allowing nearly 20 scheduled shows to take place despite previous tensions with nearby residents. Queens Borough President Donovan Richards expressed satisfaction at the breakthrough, stating that private security teams would monitor events. This resolution comes amid concerns about noise and community dynamics, reinforcing the stadium's status as a cultural hub that unifies diverse audiences in Queens. The concerts will continue under an alternative security plan approved by the NYPD, ensuring compliance with local demands.
Forest Hills Stadium is a cultural crown jewel of our borough, bringing diverse crowds from all over the world to Queens every summer through the unifying power of music.
This historic venue is emblematic of all that makes Queens great, and I'm thrilled to say we've struck a deal to ensure the shows will go on in 2025 as planned.
